I still need to do the back yard but just I want to finish the front tomorrow I go back to the Dr for my shoulder hope he sees an improvement take care everyone. Annie is doing pretty good .Roger good luck tomorrow.
We try and get seed or plants in the ground ahead of forecast rain, Saves watering them in.
Good Luck with the planting.
Can You tell if the shoulder feels better than before ?
I have a suspicion based on what I see out the window that it will on and off rain all day and a raw cold day at that.IreneMurman wrote: »good morning, well if it stops raining today I plan on putting some lime down and maybe some grass seed not looking too good outside it is raining again. Roger good luck today hope you are able to read it. Well got to get ready for the Dr take care
I think I will need the Internet to help me interpret the test results unless it is jargon and tech terms free.
Good Luck at the doctor

Hi
It is 45 degrees outside, The forecast high is in the 50s again. At the present moment there is no rain falling, OTOH the street is still wet and the puddle at the foot of the driveway is still there.
The report was not good news
the biopsy show consistent with Adenocarcinoma and favors a Primary Liver Cholangiocarcinoma

Good morning.
Another rainy, chilly day.
Roger, they are modern jeeps, there is one company that has pink jeeps. We actually booked 2 tours (about 2 hours each). One that should be close to sunset, so we can get the colors.
Hope your results were good.
Off to stained glass and clay today.
Have a great day, everyone.

Good morning;
Roger-I am sorry you got bad news. I am sending prayers.
Vix-The jeep tour sounds like fun. I am sure the sunset will be beautiful.
Irene-I hope the cortisone injection helps your shoulder.
I have been a little sore after using the elliptical machine at the gym. It is so different than the one I have at home.
After work I am going to get my hair colored and cut. It will be a long day.

Hi
It is 45 degrees outside, The forecast high is in the 60s.
It seems that the Oncologist likes to look at the results of the Catscan and MRI so today off I go to the Hospital to get a disk for each. Either I will get one for him and one for my records or I'll have to copy them here at home.
The Hernia has turned out to be a mixed blessing, without the Catscan to confirm that the Other issue would not have been detected this early...
I will have a update Tuesday and will post that Wednesday the 22nd.

I'm sorry to, It is what it is, As I mentioned above the hernia was a mixed blessing. Thank You for the Prayers, They should help.
Our Lawn is overdue for a mowing, My brother plans to do that later this morning giving a little time to dry out.
If I recollect properly that shot in the shoulder was likely painful and then the relief. Yikes another month of PT
For What it is worth we look at the advertisements for Home Depot and Lowe's and buy whoever is cheaper, Usually it turns out to be Lowe's and they will help load the mulch for You, Yea !IreneMurman wrote: »good morning, Vix the tours sound nice.

Not good for results, I had suspected that when they wanted an additional test after the MRI.
Just Curious do they run things like "Ride the Ducks" where they use Duck Boats in Your area or where You are going ?
Enjoy the Sunset

Good morning.
Roger, I am so sorry...I must not have looked at the new page yesterday. Sending healing thoughts and prayers. It is good that they caught it early. And good that you found someone with a lot of experience. They really work wonders now.
They don't have ride the ducks near me that I know of...I saw them when we went to Austin, Tx. I am looking forward to being in the mountains.
Irene, hope the cortisone shot helps. I got one in my shoulder once. I think it took a few days to kick in, but then I didn't have any problems with my shoulder for at least a year after that.
Jo, I use my eliptical at home without power, so no extra resistance! So much easier. haha. Enjoy your hair appt. My hairdresser is between salons and she's not starting til next Wednesday. I was supposed to get my hair colored last week, but she couldn't make it, so now I guess I'll just go on vacation with my gray, unless I want to find a new hairdresser last minute.
I've got an appt with the gastro this afternoon. I've got to do that again this year. Babysitting this morning. My daughter has an appt. with her doc. Spending time with the little one will cheer me up.
Today is supposed to be sunny with a high of 72. Have a good day, everyone.0 -

Hi
It is 54 degrees outside, The forecast high is in the 60s. I heard overnight rain hitting the Window AC. While I was picking up the disks with the Scans I also decided that just in case I should get a copy of the blood work they did at the hospital.

I hope they work a quick miracle with me and that no Slicing is needed.
The Elliptical / Recumbent bike unit I bought has resistance from none to a lot that can be selected
I had heard that hairdressers moved around and the clientele follows in many cases.
I do have a appointment with the GI doc on the 24th, I can go or cancel according to him. I am waiting to hear what the Oncologist says to decide.
Have a Nice Day and Enjoy the activities

good morning, Well it rained here this morning which is ok since I just planted grass seed I won't have to water it this morning. Well today I am taking my jeep into the dealer to see about my back up camera. Roger it is so much better that you found out early . My shoulder is so much better hopefully this is the last month for pt. Vix I go next Tuesday for my color and cut I always get high lights it always looks nicer. Hi jo hope the pain is gone take care everyone0

Good morning all.
Roger, will keep sending prayers...wishing you the best. Maybe just radiation
Haha...my eliptical has resistance and programs that can be selected, but I don't put batteries in it. Natural resistance is enough for me!
Mostly cloudy here today, with an expected high of 75.
Irene, good luck getting your backup camera fixed. I've made all my hair lighter, and since it's curly, it looks like I have highlights anyway because of the way the light reflects off it. I really liked when it was dark and I put highlights in.
Hi Jo!
Off to painting class. Happy Thursday, everyone.

That is the best form of watering
and free too.
I hope that this is the last month of PT also, How good is it that the shoulder is better, I'm sure You are happy.

If I had a dead Camera I would be looking at buying one and changing it too. That has to be cheaper.
Sunday is our main food shopping day, My brother prefers to go Sunday looking for bargains in the circular.
5 minutes vs 45 minutes I can see how that longer ride is getting old. Good Luck with the new Vet.

Thanks You for the prayers too. I shall know more later Tuesday. Radiation and Even Chemo would be preferred to being sliced open again. The first one was the Hernia operation, and recovery is slower than I had hoped too.
It will be warmer than it has been all week here today also, I may even end up running the AC for a while.
I'm glad You like the way the hair came out, I have trouble visualizing it, not unusual for me.
Have a Nice Day

Sunny and 58 at the moment with a high of 80 expected. No special plans for today. Will start thinking about what to bring on vacation with me....will be gone next week...off to Sedona, AZ. Will be spending some time with family before we go.

It has been mostly cloudy and rainy today. The sun did come out for a bit.
Roger-Good luck on Tuesday and I will continue to pray for you.
As for my hair, I just had the roots touched up, the color is the same.
Vix-Have a great vacation.
Irene-I hope you and Annie like the new Vet.
I will be going to London to visit my son on the 28th. I am getting excited to see him, it has been a little over a year. I do talk to him and my daughter-in-law often, but it is not the same as being near them.

Roger and Irene. I hope you both have a relaxing weekend.
We're babysitting tonight. It'll be fun. My son and future daughter-in-law will be there too.
Probably try to work on some more details for our trip today, figure out which trails we want to walk, sites we don't want to miss, gluten free restaurants, etc.

I was happy it turned out so good she even gives discount for military since George is retired air force so I see this as a win. I found a five cents on our walk this morning it was a nice walk except my allergy's are really bad I may have to take some meds. Vix enjoy your vacation and Jo I know you must be getting excited about going to London. Roger it looks like just you and I are staying home. That's fine with me we just haven't found any where we want to go yet. Roger hoping whatever the dr plans to do is not to painful for you. take care everyone0

I am running late due to a couple of factors, It seemed prudent to scope out where my Dr. Appointment is on Tuesday due to where it is. That turned out to be a good idea. Then My brother wondered if the Barbershop would be open so we had our hair cut.

That sounds like a big win to me. Nice to get a discount too.
5 cents found, congrats
I tend to avoid travel on holidays, After dealing with traffic for many years I now avoid it if possible.
I hope the Dr. comes up with an easy cure. Painful, I could deal with being bedridden in a hospital is another story.

It's 64 at the moment, cloudy, expected high of 89!!! and possible t-storms in the p.m.
No special plans for today. Maybe some cleaning and starting to get ready for our trip. I looked up a lot of stuff yesterday. There is plenty to do there.

Good morning;
We had rain yesterday afternoon and overnight. Today is a mixture of sun and clouds with a high of 82. I am going to try once again to get my flower beds weeded.
Yesterday I found 4 one dollar bills and 1 cent. This is my biggest find so far.
I bought a new iron trellis and hubby attached it to the deck, so my clematis would have a place to climb and it also gives us some privacy.
Roger-I either Skype or Facetime with my son. We planned our trip back in December. We bought our plane tickets and booked our hotels. We have also been planning things to do over there since December.
Irene-I am glad you liked the Vet and a discount too, win-win.
Vix-Again, have a wonderful time!
House cleaning today and as mentioned above, yard work.
Enjoy your day!0
